Complementary and Supplementary Angles

Question 17 • AZ-Common Core Geometry A

Angles X and Y are supplementary. Angle X is 3 times the measure of angle Y. What is the measure of angle X?

Answer
4
45°
6
60°
1
120°
1
135°

Explanation

Supplementary angles add up to 180°. Since angle X is 3 times angle Y, the four equal parts (three for X and one for Y) total 180°, so each part is 45° and angle X is 3 × 45° = 135°. The correct choice is D, 135°.
